Filed: 1995-02-10
Abstract: An individual person mobility simulator includes a
base for placement on a support surface, a steering post
extending upwardly from the base to terminate in an
upper end, a seat mounted on the upper end of the
steering post on which a human operator may sit, a
torque/position sensor disposed between the seat and the
steering post to sense changes in seat position caused
by the operator, and foot stirrups into which the
operator may place his feet, said foot stirrups being
movably mounted on the steering post. A power source is
provided to supply a resistive force to movement of the
foot stirrups in response to and dependent upon
resistance signals. A control unit supplies resistance
signals to the power source to determine the amount of
resistance to be applied to movement of the foot
stirrups. The amount of resistance is geared to
simulate the steepness of terrain over which the
operator is moving, with greater resistance being
applied when the terrain is uphill and less resistance
being applied when the terrain is level or downhill, for
example.

Abstract: A seed crystal holder is used to grow a single crystal in an intended direction. In order to grow a single crystal in an intended direction by a crystal pulling method, a seed crystal is accurately cut out along a crystal orientation, and this seed crystal is accurately held in a predetermined attitude by the seed crystal holder. A seed crystal insertion bore having a rectangular cross-section is formed in the body of the seed crystal holder. A seed crystal having a taper surface at one edge is inserted into the seed crystal insertion bore. The inserted seed crystal is pressed at its taper surface by a taper surface of a block, so that two surfaces of the seed crystal are fixedly pressed against two inner surfaces of the seed crystal insertion bore. The other end of the block is covered with a block-retaining ring, so that the block does not come off the seed crystal holder.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un caméra infrarouge permettant de représenter un objet. Cette caméra comprend un objectif qui va projeter l'objet sur un plan focal sur lequel se trouvent des systèmes de conversion. Ces systèmes de conversion vont transformer les photons du spectre infrarouge émis ou réfléchis par l'objet en des particules électriquement chargées, ceci en fonction de la position de l'émission ou, respectivement, de la réflexion des photons. Cette caméra fait également appel à des systèmes de détection de position qui permettent de mesurer la position de l'émission des particules électriquement chargées. Les systèmes de conversion comprennent un milieu gazeux contenant des particules capables de passer à un état d'excitation électronique, tel qu'un état de Rydberg. Les systèmes de conversion comprennent également un système d'excitation, tel qu'une source de rayonnement laser, qui permet d'amener les particules à l'état d'excitation électronique. Ces systèmes de conversion vont ainsi absorber les impulsions de photons et émettre des particules chargées électriquement.
